VOIP Question
I'm not quite understanding what the deal is with the charging for a SoftPhone by these various companies. The network traffic sent out by your hardware VOIP router has to conform to TCP/IP standards, right? I'm not sure I am understanding how these providers can detect the traffic is being generated by the hardware device or a software device? Techincally, isn't it possible to sniff the outbound traffic from one of these hardware devices and pull out the necessary information from the packets, plug those settings into a SoftPhone and then disconnect the hardware device and utilize the SoftPhone?
Could someone explain what the technical limitation of this is, or direct me to a site which can explain it to me?
